<v Speaker 1>yours truly here on the Dan Patrick Show. Say good

0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:39.760
<v Speaker 1>best and worst through the weekend as we always do

<v Speaker 1>every Monday. Which you saw that you liked you didn't like.

0:01:43.160 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 1>NBA All Star Game format Works Team Lebron wins controversy

0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:52.760
<v Speaker 1>in the slam Dunk contest and Mason Rudolph return served

0:01:52.760 --> 0:01:56.400
<v Speaker 1>to Miles Garrett on the so called racial slur. The

0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:59.600
<v Speaker 1>commissioner of Major League Baseball had a bad weekend. We'll

0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 1>talk about that as well. Sports outrage has several degrees. Now,

0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.160
<v Speaker 1>there are times when an athlete commits an actual crime.

0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:11.440
<v Speaker 1>Of course that's awful. Then there's the serious cheating scandals.

0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:14.720
<v Speaker 1>The astro stealing signs Fitch into that category. Then there's

0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:18.200
<v Speaker 1>the kind of controversy that is somewhat serious but actually

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of fun. That's where the twenty twenty slammed On

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:25.240
<v Speaker 1>contest fits him. They heat Derek Jones Junior beat The

0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Magic's Aaron Gordon in one of the better competitions we've had. Now,

0:02:31.000 --> 0:02:33.440
<v Speaker 1>you started to watch this and you're going, okay, we're

0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:37.320
<v Speaker 1>an extra round because both players get perfect fifties, and

0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:40.600
<v Speaker 1>then reportedly the judges conspired to have them tie again

0:02:40.639 --> 0:02:45.520
<v Speaker 1>to force another round, but someone screwed up their math. Ironically,

0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:49.040
<v Speaker 1>the second time Gordon has been jobbed in a dunk contest,

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:52.440
<v Speaker 1>it happened against Zach Levine in twenty sixteen. As well,

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:56.239
<v Speaker 1>Gordon stole the show Saturday Night. He jumped over seven

0:02:56.320 --> 0:03:00.800
<v Speaker 1>foot five Celtics rookie Taco fall Jones Junior was great,

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:04.119
<v Speaker 1>but Gordon's dunk will be part of NBA history, even

0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 1>if he doesn't have the hardware to show for this. Now,

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:11.639
<v Speaker 1>even if they had tied, I'm under the impression that

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 1>they would have had a vote off. They had five judges,

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:19.079
<v Speaker 1>so they would have voted to crown their slam Dunk Camp.

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:22.920
<v Speaker 1>We normally sort of look at the slam Dunk Contest

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:26.320
<v Speaker 1>and go, has anybody joining anything originally? Anything different? And

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought both of these guys were spectacular. I thought

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:31.480
<v Speaker 1>it was funny, and I'm not a slam Dunk contest guy.

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:35.040
<v Speaker 1>The three Point Contest was wonderful as well. I thought

0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 1>the NBA had a really good weekend. You know, the

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:40.080
<v Speaker 1>slam Dunk Contest. Now, Aaron Gordon says he's not going

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:43.040
<v Speaker 1>to compete anymore, and I understand that because he's probably

0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:46.120
<v Speaker 1>going what do I have to do? And he did

0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 1>enough to win. If you're putting up five fifties, I'm

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>guessing you should be crown champion. This is what Aaron

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Gordon does. He's a good player for Orlando. But I

0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:01.960
<v Speaker 1>also think that he'll get more publicity by not winning

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:06.760
<v Speaker 1>the slam Dun Contest than you know, Jones Junior. Because

0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't even think anybody knew about Derek Jones Junior.

0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:14.080
<v Speaker 1>But Aaron Gordon, Oh, that's the guy lost slam Dunk Contest.

0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:18.960
<v Speaker 1>You get a little publicity there for not winning something,

0:04:19.000 --> 0:04:21.839
<v Speaker 1>because sometimes when you do win, people forget about it.

0:04:21.880 --> 0:04:26.840
<v Speaker 1>But the controversy there. I like the Elham ending with

0:04:26.960 --> 0:04:29.719
<v Speaker 1>the game last night, and I was looking at some numbers.

0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:32.440
<v Speaker 1>I was curious about how hard these guys were playing

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:35.240
<v Speaker 1>first three quarters. It's really just let's have some fun,

0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:37.039
<v Speaker 1>let's put on a show. I was fine with that.

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:40.279
<v Speaker 1>I like it when it gets a little more serious.

0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 1>But you know, with something at stake, and you had

0:04:42.760 --> 0:04:46.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of money at stake for charity, I broke

0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 1>down the quarters here. Actually I had somebody to do

0:04:49.040 --> 0:04:53.040
<v Speaker 1>it for me. But in the first quarter the teams

0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 1>combined to shoot sixty two second quarter forty eight percent,

0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:05.240
<v Speaker 1>third quarter fifty seven, fourth quarter thirty five percent. Dunks

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:08.679
<v Speaker 1>in the first quarter they combined for twenty three, twelve

0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:12.839
<v Speaker 1>in the second, thirteen and the third, three and the fourth.

0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Fouls two in the first quarter, five in the second,

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:21.320
<v Speaker 1>seven in the third, twenty one fouls in the fourth quarter.

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Block shots one in the first quarter, two in the second,

0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:31.880
<v Speaker 1>four in the third, seven in the fourth. Got interesting,

0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 1>got exciting. I thought guys were tensing up a little bit,

0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Like you could actually see guys who were nervous because

0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 1>the amount of money that was at stake for these charities.

0:05:44.400 --> 0:05:46.920
<v Speaker 1>So what worked. The only tweak I would have is

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.360
<v Speaker 1>you must win on a make shot, a maid shot.

0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:52.719
<v Speaker 1>Now there was drama with Anthony Davis going to the

0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:56.040
<v Speaker 1>line and look, I'm not looking for things to nitpick here.

0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I would just like to have the game. I'm so

0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 1>tired of seeing all these free throws watching an NBA game.

0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:06.440
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to see it on a maid shot because

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 1>then you got somebody defending you. Now you can say, well,

0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:12.520
<v Speaker 1>then they're going to foul them. And I understand that

0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I am nitpicking. It was just you go to the

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 1>line and then Anthony Davis said he missed the first

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:22.280
<v Speaker 1>one on purpose. I don't think so. I think you're

0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>starting to tense up a little bit, squeeze a little

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:28.279
<v Speaker 1>tighter there, and then he made the second one. But

0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:31.240
<v Speaker 1>it was fun that there was a payoff there at

0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:36.520
<v Speaker 1>the end. As for the slam dunk contest, not everybody

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:38.400
<v Speaker 1>has to if you want it to be serious. The

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.280
<v Speaker 1>reason why American Idol worked is because of one person,

0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Simon cow I don't need common there to tell me

0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:48.720
<v Speaker 1>what a dunk is or a great dunk. You know,

0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:51.880
<v Speaker 1>he's a great performer. But if you want to put

0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>somebody there, Barkley would be honest. If you want to

0:06:56.040 --> 0:07:00.120
<v Speaker 1>treat it like it's a serious event, then do so.

0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 1>Put the right people there. I just can't imagine where

0:07:03.680 --> 0:07:07.200
<v Speaker 1>he got Doctor Jane Dominique Wilkins sitting next to Common going,

0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:11.200
<v Speaker 1>what do we have in common here? We invented this.

0:07:12.560 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 1>I would have as much validity on that committee as

0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Common would. I mean, it seems like a nice guy,

0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:27.000
<v Speaker 1>but okay, if you're gonna take it serious, then take

0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:30.600
<v Speaker 1>it serious. And I can't have Dwyane Wade. He's not

0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:34.480
<v Speaker 1>far removed from it. You know, the Miami Heat, and

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 1>he's going to be voting on you know, Jones Junior.

0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Remember the Miami Heat. It just doesn't look good, that's all.

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:43.720
<v Speaker 1>That's where you have to have somebody come in and go,

0:07:43.960 --> 0:07:47.480
<v Speaker 1>you know what, that dunk is an eight dunks to seven?

0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:52.400
<v Speaker 1>How about we do this? What's wrong with a nine

0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 1>point three? Why does it have to be a nine

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:59.680
<v Speaker 1>or a ten? Nine point seven? How about we get

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:01.920
<v Speaker 1>something where if you really want to go after this

0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 1>and you want to treat it like it's real and serious,

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.720
<v Speaker 1>then do it. If not, then we'll just have fun

0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:11.960
<v Speaker 1>with this. Yeah, you're like getting into like Olympics. Yes, gymnastics. Yeah,

0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:14.480
<v Speaker 1>where it's like there's technical points and then style. Yes,

0:08:15.400 --> 0:08:18.120
<v Speaker 1>if you want to do okay, that's you. That's what

0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:20.200
<v Speaker 1>it sounds like you. But I don't want anybody then

0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:22.600
<v Speaker 1>to be crying that. You know, Hey you got jobbed here.

0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:25.840
<v Speaker 1>If if you want it be serious, didn't have it

0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 1>be serious. If not, hey, it's just a great, you

0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:32.079
<v Speaker 1>know exhibition there. These guys were a whole lot of

0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:36.440
<v Speaker 1>fun there. Maybe DJ College can understand how to pronounce

0:08:36.480 --> 0:08:38.839
<v Speaker 1>somebody's name in the slam dun What the hell? Why

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:42.839
<v Speaker 1>help me out with DJ coll like, I don't get it,

0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.920
<v Speaker 1>get it, I just repeat the last one said. I

0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:49.400
<v Speaker 1>don't hold on say anything there, anything anything, I just

0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:52.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't. I don't get DJ College. When Chance of

0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:54.559
<v Speaker 1>Rapper was rapping and he seems like a talented guys,

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.240
<v Speaker 1>the rapper is, yeah, he's up there. DJ callaw with

0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:00.559
<v Speaker 1>sweating like Patrick ewing. After thirty seconds and whatever Chance

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:02.880
<v Speaker 1>of Rapper finished the sentence, Let's say he said, hi,

0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:06.120
<v Speaker 1>rise here, Hi, rise out of the bed. He just

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.880
<v Speaker 1>does the last word that the rapper says to pump

0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:11.640
<v Speaker 1>like nenunciate it, punctuated, whatever word you want to use. Yes,

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:13.880
<v Speaker 1>you guys have to be nice. J College is actually

0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:16.560
<v Speaker 1>performing during the second look in. Is he gonna be

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:18.959
<v Speaker 1>here in our studio? There's never been anyone on the

0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:21.800
<v Speaker 1>more TV events in the history of sports. He's hit everything,

0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.439
<v Speaker 1>every single event. Wasn't he at the Tuper Bowl? I

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:26.720
<v Speaker 1>think he was sure he was. I'm sure he was. Yes,

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:28.880
<v Speaker 1>he's kind of slipped into that palace killed him famous

0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 1>for being famous kind of thing. Were you not sure

0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 1>exactly what he does and why he keeps being invited

0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:35.079
<v Speaker 1>to these Yeah, I don't know. I don't know his

0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:41.959
<v Speaker 1>music music. Sorry, I'm sorry. I'm a big fan, but

0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:46.480
<v Speaker 1>he can't turnout. He screwed up Patton his name. Wow,

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.680
<v Speaker 1>every single member of the media has done that once,

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:52.920
<v Speaker 1>especially two weeks ago, and I got killed for it.

0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:57.120
<v Speaker 1>That's the hardest name DJ is introducing these guys. I

0:09:57.160 --> 0:10:01.160
<v Speaker 1>think it's Connaton. I I don't think it's Connaughton. I

0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:05.120
<v Speaker 1>go I've been chastised. I remember, you know, the judge

0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:07.560
<v Speaker 1>from Milwaukee that we know he goes. You guys gotta

0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:11.319
<v Speaker 1>get that name right. I think it's Connaton. Did he

0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:13.400
<v Speaker 1>change it when he got to the pros? I don't know.

0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:16.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It's like than I think it's Connaton.

0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:21.640
<v Speaker 1>I remember when he was at Notre Dame. Isnt But

0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:26.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm not being paid to introduce the swam dunk contest. Guys.

0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:33.920
<v Speaker 1>But DJ Khalid was connaught, but it was it was fun.

0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:36.079
<v Speaker 1>Reggie Miller will join us a little bit later on

0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:39.079
<v Speaker 1>to discuss. But we got to play of the day.

0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:43.640
<v Speaker 1>He got Stat of the Day and whole questions as well,

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:47.240
<v Speaker 1>right mclev Yeah, and it will not involve that player

0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:50.120
<v Speaker 1>from the dunk contest from Milwaukee because I still can't

0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:52.120
<v Speaker 1>say the name. I'm actually reading the fanetics now and

0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:54.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how to do it. Okay, Yeah, I

0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:56.360
<v Speaker 1>think I have a poule. If I told you on Friday,

0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:59.000
<v Speaker 1>we'd be talking about one of these two things, Chris

0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:02.319
<v Speaker 1>Paul getting a dunk in the All Star Game or

0:11:03.080 --> 0:11:05.520
<v Speaker 1>James Harden getting called for an offensive foul in the

0:11:05.600 --> 0:11:08.840
<v Speaker 1>All Star Game. I was shocked when I went, wait,

0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>they're gonna call an offensive fell and James Harden in

0:11:11.880 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 1>they All Star Game. Not during the regular season. They'd

0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:17.840
<v Speaker 1>never do that. But they called James Harden for an

0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:21.960
<v Speaker 1>offensive found and went, WHOA, who are these officials? Yeah?

0:11:22.920 --> 0:11:25.600
<v Speaker 1>How about this? This has been the debate both backstage

0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:29.960
<v Speaker 1>and on Twitter. Did Aaron Gordon clear Taco fall yes

0:11:30.080 --> 0:11:35.439
<v Speaker 1>or no? No, Taco leaned? It was Taco lean. He

0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:38.319
<v Speaker 1>didn't didn't fall, he just leaned. But did he do

0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:42.360
<v Speaker 1>enough to earn okay? So I mean, I don't know

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:45.480
<v Speaker 1>what a perfect score. They shouldn't just hand out perfect scores.

0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:49.839
<v Speaker 1>There are certain dunks that are you know, perfect down

0:11:49.920 --> 0:11:53.320
<v Speaker 1>through history, but I don't think everyone is like, oh,

0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:56.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm fifty, Like that's where I go, you know, and

0:11:56.520 --> 0:12:01.920
<v Speaker 1>that's probably forty nine point two something like that. But

0:12:02.080 --> 0:12:04.560
<v Speaker 1>it feels like, oh, if you just you know, throw fifty,

0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:07.920
<v Speaker 1>because everybody wants to celebrate that. And then the fact

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:11.680
<v Speaker 1>that they're conspiring and somebody who apparently is as good

0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.920
<v Speaker 1>at math as I am screwed it up and they

0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:16.959
<v Speaker 1>were gonna have a time, then they were gonna have

0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:21.320
<v Speaker 1>a vote off. That's why I didn't get too crazy

0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:23.280
<v Speaker 1>about it. I mean, I feel bad for Aaron Gordon.

0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:26.160
<v Speaker 1>He's like, hey, you know, I've practiced this. I should

0:12:26.160 --> 0:12:29.400
<v Speaker 1>have won this twice. Yeah, you're right, absolutely, I don't

0:12:29.400 --> 0:12:31.280
<v Speaker 1>want to do it again. But I can't be up

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:33.360
<v Speaker 1>at arms if it feels like you had the June

0:12:33.360 --> 0:12:36.200
<v Speaker 1>who's saying, hey, we want this to be a feel

0:12:36.240 --> 0:12:39.760
<v Speaker 1>good dunk contest. We're gonna conspire to fix it. Yeah see,

0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm kind of feeling bad for Derek Jones Junior because

0:12:42.600 --> 0:12:45.000
<v Speaker 1>what he did was remarkable. The things that he was

0:12:45.040 --> 0:12:47.880
<v Speaker 1>doing was just unbelievable. But everybody's kind of like, yeah,

0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:51.040
<v Speaker 1>but you didn't really win it. I mean, he's did

0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:53.600
<v Speaker 1>to jumping over people and still putting it through their

0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:58.319
<v Speaker 1>legs and document what. Yeah, pau I thought Derrick Jones Jr.

0:12:58.480 --> 0:13:00.520
<v Speaker 1>If I would have voted over the ality. I liked

0:13:00.559 --> 0:13:02.559
<v Speaker 1>his little more. He's got a newer guy and put

0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:04.439
<v Speaker 1>on a good show. But too he wanted to put

0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:06.720
<v Speaker 1>jump over Shack Aaron Gordon, and Shack kind of waved

0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:09.280
<v Speaker 1>him off, and then everyone says, there's taco, there's taco.

0:13:09.440 --> 0:13:12.440
<v Speaker 1>He didn't practice this. This wasn't like a dunky practice.

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:14.200
<v Speaker 1>You don't. There's not a bunch of seven six guys

0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:16.719
<v Speaker 1>hanging out in Orlando they could do this with. So

0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:18.880
<v Speaker 1>you gotta give him credit for he basically jumped over

0:13:18.920 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 1>a seven three guy, you know what I mean? Yeah,

0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:24.199
<v Speaker 1>not a seven five? Maybe seven three? Right? Yeah, Yeah,

0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:26.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm not feeling Derek Jones Juniors. But you guys, he

0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:30.160
<v Speaker 1>did the same dunk like seven times, like basically last one.

0:13:30.200 --> 0:13:32.920
<v Speaker 1>It was just like, okay, that was that was actually

0:13:32.920 --> 0:13:34.520
<v Speaker 1>I like that boy. He went between the legs like

0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:37.080
<v Speaker 1>four times. We know he can go between the legs.

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Give me something new. Aaron Gordon did that thing on

0:13:39.840 --> 0:13:41.520
<v Speaker 1>the baseline where the ball went up and I don't

0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:42.760
<v Speaker 1>even know what he did. He did like at three

0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:45.599
<v Speaker 1>to sixty in the one handed three sixty. Yeah, I

0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:47.439
<v Speaker 1>can't even describe it. But they have to slow it

0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:51.200
<v Speaker 1>down because you don't know exactly what's going on. It's like, wow,

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:53.480
<v Speaker 1>wait he did all of that in one dunk. Yeah,

0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:55.600
<v Speaker 1>if you're a Tacco, you pretty much have to participate

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:57.440
<v Speaker 1>with the peer pressure of all the players that are

0:13:57.520 --> 0:13:59.439
<v Speaker 1>baby here. If Shack already waved him off, can you

0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:01.920
<v Speaker 1>really say that? I rather not when everyone's looking at you,

0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:03.800
<v Speaker 1>and this could be the difference in your you know,

0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:06.079
<v Speaker 1>this guy winning the dunk cont Well, it's not like

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:09.079
<v Speaker 1>your face is facing Aaron Gordon when he dungs. That

0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:13.120
<v Speaker 1>would spice it up, like you're you know, it's not

0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:16.800
<v Speaker 1>junk coming your way. It was, but you don't know it.

0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:18.320
<v Speaker 1>You kind of just kind of tucked down a little.

0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Pat Connaughton, that's from the Bucks, Yeah, Pat con Is

0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:29.920
<v Speaker 1>it funny that they have Jannis at the Kombo and

0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:34.200
<v Speaker 1>the name we can't pronounce as Pat Connaton, but it

0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:38.880
<v Speaker 1>looks like Connaughton. I remember watching him at Notre Dame.

0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:42.600
<v Speaker 1>Unless they screwed it up there how to pronounce his name,

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:44.360
<v Speaker 1>or he just changed it when he got to the NBA.

0:14:44.640 --> 0:14:48.120
<v Speaker 1>We're how many years into this and we're still getting Janis. Yeah,

0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:50.600
<v Speaker 1>this name. This program, believe it or not, is brought

0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:52.800
<v Speaker 1>to you by a True Car. Buying a new car,

0:14:52.920 --> 0:14:55.680
<v Speaker 1>the process can be overwhelming. Now there's a better way

0:14:55.720 --> 0:14:57.680
<v Speaker 1>with Truecar. Go to True Car to build your car.

0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Compare models, buy options from discovery to pricing to reviews.

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Get everything you need the new True Car. What do

0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:07.880
<v Speaker 1>you have for a poll question? Nick Levin, Okay, so

0:15:08.000 --> 0:15:09.800
<v Speaker 1>we went to the Taco Fall one. Did he clear

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.440
<v Speaker 1>because I think he cleared him? But whatever, Remember when

0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:14.520
<v Speaker 1>we taught Taco Fall live when we were cheerleaders. By

0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:16.440
<v Speaker 1>the way, that's still one of the most remarkable facts.

0:15:17.040 --> 0:15:20.000
<v Speaker 1>When we were at the Houston Super Bowl and you

0:15:20.080 --> 0:15:23.040
<v Speaker 1>guys dressed up as cheerleaders. And I remember when we

0:15:23.160 --> 0:15:26.280
<v Speaker 1>walked out and all of a sudden, you go Central

0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Florida that it's one of the taller guys I've ever seen.

0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:32.880
<v Speaker 1>It was Taco Fall. We were on that Taco Fall

0:15:33.000 --> 0:15:37.280
<v Speaker 1>bandwagon well before anybody else was. But when you guys

0:15:37.520 --> 0:15:41.920
<v Speaker 1>came running out in your Houston near leading outfit, I

0:15:42.080 --> 0:15:44.080
<v Speaker 1>thought that was going to be a real embarrassing moment.

0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:47.080
<v Speaker 1>And then I realized how much Paully loved it. It

0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:49.240
<v Speaker 1>was like being in a player or something. I'm musically,

0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:50.920
<v Speaker 1>haven't you got to play a role? You never gonna

0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:53.680
<v Speaker 1>get it? It was on national TV, you know, we

0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:56.880
<v Speaker 1>reached out to one of the directors. I don't know this.

0:15:57.040 --> 0:15:59.000
<v Speaker 1>One of the people put us in touch with one

0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:01.120
<v Speaker 1>of the directors about an hour for the game. He goes,

0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna get you guys in the open of our

0:16:03.080 --> 0:16:05.560
<v Speaker 1>show tonight, and they put a camera on us running

0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.640
<v Speaker 1>out of the tunnel and that open ESPN two's coverage

0:16:11.200 --> 0:16:14.400
<v Speaker 1>and then I because you're around, you know, beautiful women,

0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:17.160
<v Speaker 1>fellow cheer leaders. It wasn't a big crowd, so it

0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.040
<v Speaker 1>wasn't like you were going to be embarrassed by that,

0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:22.160
<v Speaker 1>And there. You guys are cheering, and then I realized

0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:25.880
<v Speaker 1>this is in punishment for you guys. Mclovet has eating

0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:29.160
<v Speaker 1>it up, loved it. And I thought, oh, this will

0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:31.400
<v Speaker 1>be great. You guys will be out there, and I realized, no,

0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:37.560
<v Speaker 1>you guys were. You guys were handing it up there.

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:40.960
<v Speaker 1>It's great. All right, Okay, what are you guys for me?

0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:44.400
<v Speaker 1>All right? Uh? What's your lasting memory of the All

0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Star weekend? It's a dunk test controversy the All Star

0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 1>fourth quarter. Um, I'm not even gonna put Kobe on

0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:52.920
<v Speaker 1>it because a different thing and that was obviously the

0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:56.280
<v Speaker 1>prevalent story. How about all the Chicago stuff? But I've

0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:59.160
<v Speaker 1>got all the Chicago stuff because that was the big thing. Okay,

0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:03.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm confused, Yeah, because there were a lot of people

0:17:03.520 --> 0:17:06.359
<v Speaker 1>common mentioned a lot of people. A lot of people

0:17:06.440 --> 0:17:09.720
<v Speaker 1>have gone through Chicago, Like Kevin Garnutt is not from Chicago.

0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:12.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe. I think he was there for a

0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:15.879
<v Speaker 1>year and a half in high school. Was that Farragut Academy?

0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:17.399
<v Speaker 1>He went up to police from South Carolina. He went

0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:21.119
<v Speaker 1>out to play one year Ronnie Field. But all of

0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:23.440
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, they're going, we're trying to shoehorn some people

0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:27.520
<v Speaker 1>in here. You know, Barack Obama is not from Chicago.

0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean he obviously lived there, but you know, it

0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:34.520
<v Speaker 1>felt like they were, hey, we need some people here

0:17:34.560 --> 0:17:38.679
<v Speaker 1>to mention with Chicago basketball. Ronnie Fields was a legend.

0:17:39.119 --> 0:17:44.800
<v Speaker 1>I get that Mark Aguire, Ben Wilson tragically murdered as

0:17:44.880 --> 0:17:48.200
<v Speaker 1>a high school player. But you know I started to go,

0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I think they're running out of names here. Yeah, I

0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:53.080
<v Speaker 1>m the club. I got in a big argument on Twitter.

0:17:53.320 --> 0:17:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I was debating Philly basketball verus Chicago basketball versus in

0:17:56.000 --> 0:17:58.400
<v Speaker 1>New York basketball. Did the guy have to be from

0:17:58.440 --> 0:18:01.280
<v Speaker 1>the city to be identified with that city? Beats Chicago

0:18:01.400 --> 0:18:04.920
<v Speaker 1>is claiming Jordan last night obviously, like Philly kind of

0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:08.760
<v Speaker 1>claimed Doctor Jay. Like what's the rule on, like how

0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:13.440
<v Speaker 1>you define a city's basketball. Kevin Garnett is not Chicago. Well,

0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:15.639
<v Speaker 1>he didn't there for a year. It's not the worst,

0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:20.520
<v Speaker 1>he didn't play it all. There is professional career. I

0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:22.320
<v Speaker 1>would say it's people who are born and raised in

0:18:22.400 --> 0:18:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Chicago and became great basketball players elsewhere. Actually, like if

0:18:26.040 --> 0:18:29.480
<v Speaker 1>Mark Aguire is from the West Side Westinghouse, I think

0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:33.000
<v Speaker 1>and Saint Joseph's is Isaiah Thomas. They grew up there

0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:35.200
<v Speaker 1>and played there and then went to Indiana and Detroit.

0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:38.120
<v Speaker 1>But but I look at Isaiah Thomas as a Chicago

0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:43.000
<v Speaker 1>basketball player by definition who played for Indiana. Yeah. Fun,

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:45.119
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Michael Jordans is a chargolayer. He's a

0:18:45.160 --> 0:18:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Charago ball. He's not up. He has nothing to do

0:18:47.359 --> 0:18:49.880
<v Speaker 1>with Chicago as far as like being raised there. Yeah,

0:18:49.960 --> 0:18:52.600
<v Speaker 1>but I'm okay with having Jordan be part of that

0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:55.840
<v Speaker 1>because you do think Chicago basketball, you think Jordan. But yeah,

0:18:55.880 --> 0:18:58.280
<v Speaker 1>the Kevin Garnett one I went, I don't. I don't

0:18:58.320 --> 0:19:02.600
<v Speaker 1>think so. I don't think so. Did Quinn Buckner get mentioned?

0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:05.639
<v Speaker 1>I've been nice? It was nice. Yeah, Quinn Buckner played

0:19:05.960 --> 0:19:07.879
<v Speaker 1>for a long time, played on the Indiana team. He's

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:12.360
<v Speaker 1>a Chicago guy. Yes, am I totally crazy to take

0:19:12.440 --> 0:19:14.720
<v Speaker 1>like Phillies what of the great if not like the

0:19:14.800 --> 0:19:17.440
<v Speaker 1>greatest hoops town. Yeah, but you're from Philly, I know,

0:19:17.560 --> 0:19:19.359
<v Speaker 1>but it's like, no, isn't it known as that like

0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:22.639
<v Speaker 1>will all that stuff back? You know as far as

0:19:22.680 --> 0:19:25.560
<v Speaker 1>like a urban road just like that's where like New

0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:30.000
<v Speaker 1>York and who is a great like legendary playground in areas? Yeah,

0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Chicago is pretty good. Yeah, but I just don't think

0:19:33.320 --> 0:19:37.320
<v Speaker 1>of Chicago as playground legends. I mean, Dwayne Wade, you know,

0:19:37.680 --> 0:19:39.159
<v Speaker 1>obviously from there. I mean you can go back to

0:19:39.240 --> 0:19:43.399
<v Speaker 1>William Gates, who who got hurt, you know, before he

0:19:43.440 --> 0:19:47.080
<v Speaker 1>went to Marquette or maybe yeah, he was at Saint Joseph's.

0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:48.720
<v Speaker 1>He was supposed to be the next Isaiah Toime. Yeah,

0:19:49.560 --> 0:19:52.200
<v Speaker 1>but you know that was hoop dreams. But I don't

0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I just don't look at Chicago the way I do

0:19:54.080 --> 0:19:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Philadelphia or New York and New York obviously Choby Legends,

0:19:57.640 --> 0:20:00.480
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles, La too, Yeah, New y Work. I think

0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.399
<v Speaker 1>of Kareem and Doctor J and like all that, like

0:20:03.800 --> 0:20:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Rucker stuff, and that's, oh yeah, you actually had who

0:20:07.280 --> 0:20:10.200
<v Speaker 1>legends in New York. You know, they write books about

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:13.560
<v Speaker 1>those guys, and then you have the Rucker Tournament and

0:20:14.320 --> 0:20:17.320
<v Speaker 1>so all right, I have a bunch of astros polls

0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:18.879
<v Speaker 1>by the way that I can say, let me take

0:20:18.920 --> 0:20:22.639
<v Speaker 1>a break. I gotta get geared up for my The

0:20:22.680 --> 0:20:25.479
<v Speaker 1>Commissioner Baseball did not have a good week. He did

0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:29.440
<v Speaker 1>not his interview with Carl Ravage and members of the

0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:32.880
<v Speaker 1>media he did he did not do well. We'll take

0:22:31.800 --> 0:22:36.679
<v Speaker 1>Milwaukee Bucks, uh Star Dunker, Pauli went and found uh

0:22:37.280 --> 0:22:42.680
<v Speaker 1>Patna or Pat Connaughton, and uh, he is going to

0:22:42.800 --> 0:22:45.119
<v Speaker 1>tell us how maybe Pat doesn't know how to pronounce

0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:47.400
<v Speaker 1>his own name Paul. Now again, I found this clip

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:49.199
<v Speaker 1>of him. He was doing a little promotional piece when

0:22:49.240 --> 0:22:51.280
<v Speaker 1>he was at Notre Dame. So this is how he's

0:22:51.280 --> 0:22:55.080
<v Speaker 1>been saying it for years. You're Pat Pat conson. Okay,

0:22:57.119 --> 0:23:01.400
<v Speaker 1>kid doesn't know how to say yeah, Pating. Yeah, it's

0:23:01.440 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>good on. It's must be a good school. Yeah yeah, yeah.

0:23:04.800 --> 0:23:09.720
<v Speaker 1>I thought they had like high academic standards. Alrighty poll

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.840
<v Speaker 1>options there, McLevin. That's Astros related. Then we'll play some

0:23:13.000 --> 0:23:16.159
<v Speaker 1>sound from the commissioner over the weekend. Okay, is the

0:23:16.240 --> 0:23:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Astros scandal going to make you watch more baseball this season? Yes?

0:23:20.880 --> 0:23:28.120
<v Speaker 1>Or no? Yes? Yes? So is in a perverse way?

0:23:28.240 --> 0:23:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Is this a short term good thing for baseball? Once again,

0:23:33.560 --> 0:23:35.879
<v Speaker 1>when you're involved. If I said to the Astros, hey,

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:37.959
<v Speaker 1>this is gonna be good for baseball, I don't think

0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:40.000
<v Speaker 1>the Astros would agree with that. If I said to

0:23:40.080 --> 0:23:42.080
<v Speaker 1>the commissioner, hey, this is gonna be good for baseball,

0:23:42.520 --> 0:23:45.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't think the commissioner is going to agree to that. Now,

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:48.400
<v Speaker 1>the business side of this people are probably gonna go, yeah,

0:23:48.440 --> 0:23:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I got more eyeballs, more people come out to boo

0:23:51.280 --> 0:23:54.639
<v Speaker 1>the Astros. I mean, there's so many different things that

0:23:54.680 --> 0:23:57.480
<v Speaker 1>are attached to this. Imagine if you're a pitcher and

0:23:57.560 --> 0:24:01.480
<v Speaker 1>you're facing the Astros and you pitch in saw you

0:24:01.760 --> 0:24:05.360
<v Speaker 1>you might not get a warning. You might get run because, yeah,

0:24:05.560 --> 0:24:07.639
<v Speaker 1>if a pitch gets away from you, are you trying

0:24:07.720 --> 0:24:10.520
<v Speaker 1>to hit an Astro's hitter? And that's going to be

0:24:10.600 --> 0:24:13.560
<v Speaker 1>really unfair to some pictures here. If you're throwing it, hey,

0:24:14.080 --> 0:24:16.600
<v Speaker 1>are you throwing inside? And I think that that's going

0:24:16.680 --> 0:24:20.080
<v Speaker 1>to be that'll be unfair to these pictures. But you know,

0:24:20.160 --> 0:24:23.200
<v Speaker 1>that's just another element attached to this. What else do

0:24:23.240 --> 0:24:26.399
<v Speaker 1>you have? Mclovian? I was going to ask, how do

0:24:26.440 --> 0:24:29.240
<v Speaker 1>you feel now about vacating the twenty seventeen title we

0:24:29.359 --> 0:24:31.119
<v Speaker 1>did at the beginning of the scandal. I'm looking for

0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:33.280
<v Speaker 1>the results, But do you think the results will be

0:24:33.359 --> 0:24:36.960
<v Speaker 1>different today after the apology last week than it was

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:40.320
<v Speaker 1>when we first asked a question? Really an apology, right,

0:24:40.600 --> 0:24:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I think more people want to vacate the title now

0:24:42.600 --> 0:24:44.600
<v Speaker 1>than two weeks ago. Well, if the commissioner is going

0:24:44.680 --> 0:24:46.639
<v Speaker 1>to tell us that he didn't want to fight the

0:24:46.680 --> 0:24:51.080
<v Speaker 1>players Association. So the reason why he didn't punish these

0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:53.480
<v Speaker 1>players is he didn't want to get tied up in

0:24:53.600 --> 0:24:58.680
<v Speaker 1>litigation here. There's gonna be grievances. You're the commissioner. Do

0:24:58.840 --> 0:25:01.480
<v Speaker 1>what's right for the game, not hey, I didn't want

0:25:01.480 --> 0:25:04.080
<v Speaker 1>to deal with the players Association, or we're gonna have

0:25:04.280 --> 0:25:06.679
<v Speaker 1>this you know CBA that's going to be coming up,

0:25:06.720 --> 0:25:08.800
<v Speaker 1>and I want to play nice with the players Association.

0:25:09.880 --> 0:25:12.600
<v Speaker 1>I just I don't think the commissioner did well this weekend.

0:25:14.600 --> 0:25:16.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, he says, oh, you can, you know, take

0:25:17.000 --> 0:25:21.000
<v Speaker 1>away a piece of metal. I'll play some of this sound.

0:25:21.680 --> 0:25:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Here is the commissioner on why he didn't go after

0:25:26.240 --> 0:25:29.400
<v Speaker 1>the players but went after management in Hindstad. Was there

0:25:29.440 --> 0:25:32.520
<v Speaker 1>any other way to go about this without blanket immunity

0:25:32.720 --> 0:25:36.440
<v Speaker 1>that would allow you to punish certain players. You could

0:25:36.480 --> 0:25:40.320
<v Speaker 1>have made the choice to go with the management people

0:25:40.760 --> 0:25:43.879
<v Speaker 1>and sort of given them immunity and found out how

0:25:43.960 --> 0:25:48.720
<v Speaker 1>the players were involved, whatever dissatisfaction is out there with

0:25:48.840 --> 0:25:50.920
<v Speaker 1>the grant of community to players, I think it would

0:25:50.960 --> 0:25:53.560
<v Speaker 1>have been ten times worse if you'll let the management

0:25:53.640 --> 0:25:55.760
<v Speaker 1>people off and then try to go after the players

0:25:56.640 --> 0:25:59.359
<v Speaker 1>all right, here's the commissioner on why those players do

0:25:59.480 --> 0:26:02.920
<v Speaker 1>not get The one thing that I do take issue

0:26:02.960 --> 0:26:09.280
<v Speaker 1>with the notion that anybody in the Houston organization escaped

0:26:09.640 --> 0:26:13.840
<v Speaker 1>without punishment. And I think if you look at the

0:26:13.960 --> 0:26:17.560
<v Speaker 1>faces of the Houston players as they've been out there

0:26:17.640 --> 0:26:20.879
<v Speaker 1>publicly addressing this issue, they have been hurt by this.

0:26:21.440 --> 0:26:23.800
<v Speaker 1>They will live with questions about what went on in

0:26:23.880 --> 0:26:27.040
<v Speaker 1>twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen for the rest of their lives.

0:26:27.320 --> 0:26:31.280
<v Speaker 1>And frankly, it's rare that for any offense you have

0:26:31.400 --> 0:26:33.720
<v Speaker 1>a punishment that you will live with for the rest

0:26:33.800 --> 0:26:36.440
<v Speaker 1>of your life. So I, you know, hope the questions

0:26:37.400 --> 0:26:40.879
<v Speaker 1>will at least take into account those two thoughts. Oh gosh,

0:26:41.080 --> 0:26:46.640
<v Speaker 1>that's horrible. So if I look at Pete Rose's face,

0:26:47.359 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 1>because he's had to live with this the rest of

0:26:49.359 --> 0:26:54.280
<v Speaker 1>his life, that's that's that's enough punishment. Right now. You

0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:56.520
<v Speaker 1>can say, well, we have rules in place for gambling,

0:26:56.960 --> 0:26:59.520
<v Speaker 1>but not you know, sign stealing. All right, we're just

0:26:59.520 --> 0:27:02.280
<v Speaker 1>talking about the Hall of Fame now. So look at

0:27:02.320 --> 0:27:05.240
<v Speaker 1>the look at the anguish on Pete Roseen's face, Look

0:27:05.280 --> 0:27:09.480
<v Speaker 1>at the disappointment, look at this sadness. So what do

0:27:09.560 --> 0:27:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I factor that in. All you have to do is

0:27:11.520 --> 0:27:13.840
<v Speaker 1>show remorse. If you cry, then you know I don't

0:27:13.920 --> 0:27:16.359
<v Speaker 1>suspend you. Like if I get busted for steroids, then

0:27:16.359 --> 0:27:19.960
<v Speaker 1>I just go and sorry, just cry in front of

0:27:20.000 --> 0:27:22.160
<v Speaker 1>the commissioner. I'll have to live with this the rest

0:27:22.200 --> 0:27:24.680
<v Speaker 1>of my life. Now we're gonna sit you down for

0:27:24.760 --> 0:27:28.280
<v Speaker 1>half a year. That's what happens. Now I can look

0:27:28.280 --> 0:27:31.119
<v Speaker 1>at the Do those Astros look like they're really pained.

0:27:32.119 --> 0:27:34.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, maybe I missed something here, but it's not

0:27:34.960 --> 0:27:39.600
<v Speaker 1>like those guys are torn up about this. Yeah, in

0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:41.600
<v Speaker 1>that first cliss Commissioner said, well, if we would have

0:27:41.640 --> 0:27:46.480
<v Speaker 1>given the management and manager's immunity and test bat against

0:27:46.480 --> 0:27:48.720
<v Speaker 1>the players, nobody would have been satisfied with that. He's

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:52.360
<v Speaker 1>using extremes. You could have punished ball. Let's say every

0:27:52.400 --> 0:27:54.160
<v Speaker 1>player on the Astros that was part of it got

0:27:54.280 --> 0:27:58.960
<v Speaker 1>a ten game suspension right without pay. But we're finding

0:27:59.080 --> 0:28:03.080
<v Speaker 1>that Jose alt Ve apparently didn't need these these signals,

0:28:03.160 --> 0:28:06.239
<v Speaker 1>these drum warnings. They said that hulist Joe Jackson did

0:28:06.320 --> 0:28:08.159
<v Speaker 1>not tank the World Series, but he knew about it,

0:28:08.200 --> 0:28:09.520
<v Speaker 1>and that's why he was barred from the game. He

0:28:09.600 --> 0:28:12.000
<v Speaker 1>was not accused of actually tanking and not he hit

0:28:12.040 --> 0:28:15.160
<v Speaker 1>three seventy five, so that that doesn't wash. But he's

0:28:15.200 --> 0:28:19.639
<v Speaker 1>basically saying, you know, people are probably zero punishment. You

0:28:19.720 --> 0:28:21.960
<v Speaker 1>could if the punishments ten games people say this should

0:28:21.960 --> 0:28:24.159
<v Speaker 1>have been more. That's fine, but zero punishment's tough to

0:28:24.200 --> 0:28:26.919
<v Speaker 1>deal with. If you don't want to punish the individual players,

0:28:27.440 --> 0:28:30.640
<v Speaker 1>then you just take away the trophy, like you physically

0:28:30.720 --> 0:28:34.760
<v Speaker 1>take away the trophy and vacate the title. Then if

0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna they're gonna live with this game, they shouldn't

0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:40.960
<v Speaker 1>be living with the shame while having a World Series trophy.

0:28:41.120 --> 0:28:44.880
<v Speaker 1>That's all. Take the trophy away. It's symbolic, and you're

0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:48.600
<v Speaker 1>punishing the players because you're taking away that trophy. I

0:28:48.720 --> 0:28:52.160
<v Speaker 1>hate that the fans are being punished here, but you know,

0:28:52.280 --> 0:28:54.280
<v Speaker 1>in their minds, they're still gonna say, hey, we were

0:28:54.400 --> 0:28:57.600
<v Speaker 1>champions there. Granted there's an asterisk by that, but you

0:28:57.680 --> 0:29:00.520
<v Speaker 1>don't want to punish individual players. How we're going to

0:29:00.600 --> 0:29:04.400
<v Speaker 1>punish everybody because of you. Then it feels a little

0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:07.560
<v Speaker 1>bit different there. But don't tell me to look on

0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:12.440
<v Speaker 1>their faces. I'm guessing Josiel two is still cashing a

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:16.840
<v Speaker 1>pretty big paycheck now. Maybe he doesn't get into the

0:29:16.920 --> 0:29:19.360
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Fame. Who knows, you know where we're going

0:29:19.440 --> 0:29:22.760
<v Speaker 1>to be in fifteen years from now? Does it follow him?

0:29:23.200 --> 0:29:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Probably it should. But now now you've got Carlo's caress

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:32.880
<v Speaker 1>in Josieale Twove didn't use it, so who did? And

0:29:32.960 --> 0:29:36.760
<v Speaker 1>then all of a sudden, you're gonna stop. That's why

0:29:36.800 --> 0:29:39.520
<v Speaker 1>when you had Cody Bellinger saying these guys are cheaters.

0:29:39.560 --> 0:29:44.560
<v Speaker 1>They've been cheating for the last three years. Okay, would

0:29:44.600 --> 0:29:47.240
<v Speaker 1>you stop if you were successful? I don't think so

0:29:47.840 --> 0:29:53.320
<v Speaker 1>unless somebody said to you, guys, they're onto you. And

0:29:53.880 --> 0:29:57.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't rule out the buzzers. I don't. I'm sorry.

0:29:58.880 --> 0:30:03.600
<v Speaker 1>It's just, you know, coincidental that these things happened to

0:30:03.720 --> 0:30:08.760
<v Speaker 1>jose L Twove after hitting that game winning, series winning

0:30:08.800 --> 0:30:11.240
<v Speaker 1>a home run. What about the guys who were on base?

0:30:11.440 --> 0:30:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Did they get benefit from the drums? Like at two?

0:30:17.080 --> 0:30:19.760
<v Speaker 1>He didn't cheat? Okay, what about the guys who were

0:30:19.840 --> 0:30:24.600
<v Speaker 1>on base when he hit the home run? Like? Yeah,

0:30:25.880 --> 0:30:28.120
<v Speaker 1>I know the commissioner wants this to go away, and

0:30:28.240 --> 0:30:30.240
<v Speaker 1>I think more information is going to come out about this,

0:30:31.000 --> 0:30:33.200
<v Speaker 1>And now you've got the Red Sox stuff that's going

0:30:33.280 --> 0:30:35.960
<v Speaker 1>to come out probably this week. I don't know what's

0:30:36.000 --> 0:30:40.479
<v Speaker 1>going to happen with that as well, but it feels

0:30:40.520 --> 0:30:43.560
<v Speaker 1>like the commissioner's not going he's going to punish a player.

0:30:44.360 --> 0:30:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Probably not. Yeah, club, Okay, if you had to rank

0:30:47.840 --> 0:30:52.239
<v Speaker 1>the four commissioners right now, turns the popularity not your

0:30:52.280 --> 0:30:57.360
<v Speaker 1>opinion out of Silver its one. Uh. China was not

0:30:57.560 --> 0:31:00.440
<v Speaker 1>his shining moment this year, but yes, he's definitely yes

0:31:00.560 --> 0:31:02.960
<v Speaker 1>boy in popularity or how good of a job they're doing,

0:31:03.000 --> 0:31:06.040
<v Speaker 1>because those are two different things. Popularity okay, like who

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:11.080
<v Speaker 1>not how Dan Fields? How people feel? Okay, I'm gonna

0:31:11.160 --> 0:31:14.880
<v Speaker 1>guess Adam Silver after All Star weekend is coming off

0:31:14.920 --> 0:31:17.680
<v Speaker 1>pretty well. It's not his fault. They lost a couple

0:31:17.680 --> 0:31:22.120
<v Speaker 1>one hundred million dollars in China. That's not his fault

0:31:22.920 --> 0:31:25.480
<v Speaker 1>and it doesn't bother me. I just got off this

0:31:25.560 --> 0:31:27.760
<v Speaker 1>morn at Yeah, I'm okay. If they lost a couple

0:31:27.760 --> 0:31:30.760
<v Speaker 1>of hundred million dollars, it did did not affect me

0:31:30.960 --> 0:31:35.440
<v Speaker 1>at all. I would say, Adam Silver. Nobody cares about

0:31:35.440 --> 0:31:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Gary Bettman. Um. People like to dislike Gary Betman, Oh,

0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:42.360
<v Speaker 1>I know that, but they're like, he's an all time

0:31:42.920 --> 0:31:47.400
<v Speaker 1>commissioner and I do kind of like that every couple

0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:51.320
<v Speaker 1>of times a year. It trusts himself out takes painful,

0:31:52.000 --> 0:31:55.920
<v Speaker 1>it's kind to create it no matter what happens in

0:31:56.000 --> 0:31:59.920
<v Speaker 1>the Stanley Cup Final and ladies and gentlemen, the commissioner,

0:32:00.080 --> 0:32:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Gary Bettman, I'm proud, boom putting out, we have the

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:16.560
<v Speaker 1>greatest fans of the hate that. I'm gonna go Adam Silver,

0:32:17.280 --> 0:32:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Roger Goodell, Yes, locked up my buddy, Roger Goodell. And

0:32:24.920 --> 0:32:28.880
<v Speaker 1>then I'm gonna go man Fred and then Gary Bettman. Yes,

0:32:29.200 --> 0:32:31.400
<v Speaker 1>I remember Adam Silver came in and his first act

0:32:31.480 --> 0:32:34.000
<v Speaker 1>was the Donald the Sterling. Yeah is it Donald Sterling

0:32:34.040 --> 0:32:37.760
<v Speaker 1>from He took him out quick, and he removed that

0:32:37.840 --> 0:32:40.600
<v Speaker 1>guy from the equation fast, and the players loved him

0:32:40.600 --> 0:32:42.880
<v Speaker 1>from day one. Yeah, that wasn't a hard decision. No,

0:32:43.120 --> 0:32:44.800
<v Speaker 1>but he did got a lot of credit for it.

0:32:44.880 --> 0:32:46.959
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, what are you gonna do now? We're

0:32:47.000 --> 0:32:49.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna keep him in there? It's like you just forced

0:32:49.280 --> 0:32:50.880
<v Speaker 1>him to sell. I mean, they did this to Marge

0:32:50.960 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Shot in baseball like they'll come down harder on an owner,

0:32:54.680 --> 0:32:58.200
<v Speaker 1>it feels like than they will the players. Yes, John,

0:32:59.600 --> 0:33:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I can't you just put the Manfred A good yell ahead?

0:33:02.920 --> 0:33:07.840
<v Speaker 1>Of Manfred after that, well recency bias. Yes, I mean

0:33:07.880 --> 0:33:10.640
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna ask, does Manfred definitely survive all this?

0:33:10.960 --> 0:33:16.080
<v Speaker 1>It's it's a bad cue ready right now. And also

0:33:16.200 --> 0:33:18.200
<v Speaker 1>so he wasn't like it's not like he's built the

0:33:18.240 --> 0:33:21.360
<v Speaker 1>game like Adella. That's the only the only way you're

0:33:21.360 --> 0:33:23.200
<v Speaker 1>getting rid of him is if the owners want to

0:33:23.200 --> 0:33:25.479
<v Speaker 1>get rid of him. Do the owners want to get

0:33:25.560 --> 0:33:29.400
<v Speaker 1>rid of him? Probably not? And I just want to

0:33:29.440 --> 0:33:31.880
<v Speaker 1>know how business. All these owners care about is how

0:33:31.960 --> 0:33:35.080
<v Speaker 1>much money am I making? Now? They might look at

0:33:35.160 --> 0:33:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Jim Crane and say, why wasn't he punished? Okay, then

0:33:39.080 --> 0:33:41.120
<v Speaker 1>their commissioner is going to say, well, we did find

0:33:41.200 --> 0:33:43.760
<v Speaker 1>him five million dollars, we did take away a couple

0:33:43.800 --> 0:33:47.240
<v Speaker 1>of draft picks. That wouldn't satisfy me if I really

0:33:47.320 --> 0:33:49.280
<v Speaker 1>cared about it as a fellow owner. You know. See,

0:33:49.600 --> 0:33:52.560
<v Speaker 1>But what if Rob Manfred, he goes after the astroids, right,

0:33:52.600 --> 0:33:54.920
<v Speaker 1>he punishes all the players, they're suspended a bunch of games,

0:33:55.000 --> 0:33:57.720
<v Speaker 1>they find all of this money that vacate all of

0:33:57.760 --> 0:34:00.320
<v Speaker 1>these wins, and then two weeks later to do the

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:02.800
<v Speaker 1>same thing for the Red Sox, and then a week

0:34:02.920 --> 0:34:04.640
<v Speaker 1>later after that when they invest to get the Yankees.

0:34:04.680 --> 0:34:06.360
<v Speaker 1>They have to do that for the Yankees, and then

0:34:06.480 --> 0:34:07.880
<v Speaker 1>they have to go do it with the Brewers or

0:34:08.160 --> 0:34:11.919
<v Speaker 1>the whoever, and it might factor in. Yeah, I don't

0:34:12.000 --> 0:34:14.120
<v Speaker 1>rule that out, and I think that's a valid point.

0:34:14.719 --> 0:34:17.359
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna I don't know how what he found out

0:34:17.400 --> 0:34:19.920
<v Speaker 1>with the Red Sox and then do you vacate a

0:34:19.960 --> 0:34:23.000
<v Speaker 1>World Series title with the Red Sox. I don't know

0:34:23.000 --> 0:34:26.399
<v Speaker 1>if he wants to go down that path. And then

0:34:26.840 --> 0:34:30.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, the Yankees had Brian mccannon, Carlos Beltron, but

0:34:30.400 --> 0:34:33.359
<v Speaker 1>apparently they didn't cheat. The Yankees didn't cheat. I mean

0:34:33.400 --> 0:34:36.279
<v Speaker 1>they cheated in other ways, but not that way. But

0:34:36.440 --> 0:34:39.600
<v Speaker 1>if you want to punish the players, you punish the

0:34:39.640 --> 0:34:42.279
<v Speaker 1>players by vacating the world series title, then I don't

0:34:42.320 --> 0:34:43.880
<v Speaker 1>have to do anything. It's on a witch hunt of

0:34:44.280 --> 0:34:46.239
<v Speaker 1>you get ten games, and you get nine games, and

0:34:46.280 --> 0:34:49.279
<v Speaker 1>you get fourteen games, and then we find out al

0:34:49.320 --> 0:34:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Tuove apparently didn't need to cheat. Yeah, ton, so then

0:34:52.640 --> 0:34:54.320
<v Speaker 1>you're taken out. Obviously the batter at Me and Me

0:34:54.400 --> 0:34:56.239
<v Speaker 1>Park and they have the rings are coming back to

0:34:56.400 --> 0:34:58.480
<v Speaker 1>all that, right, Well, you could still give him rings.

0:34:59.040 --> 0:35:00.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean that that is don't even do in Major

0:35:00.760 --> 0:35:03.440
<v Speaker 1>League Baseball, you can still have that. They make it

0:35:03.520 --> 0:35:06.200
<v Speaker 1>warn a lot less. You're not wearing them in public

0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:11.680
<v Speaker 1>as much. Lock a jeweler somewhere. Yeah, but I mean

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:14.160
<v Speaker 1>maybe people don't care. I don't know. It feels like

0:35:14.520 --> 0:35:18.480
<v Speaker 1>fellow players care about this, that they want them to

0:35:18.520 --> 0:35:20.680
<v Speaker 1>be punished because they were affected by this. If you're

0:35:20.680 --> 0:35:24.439
<v Speaker 1>a Dodger, a Yankee, you were affected by this? Yeah,

0:35:24.840 --> 0:35:26.520
<v Speaker 1>I think what bothers and this is so obvious, but

0:35:26.600 --> 0:35:28.600
<v Speaker 1>would bother you as a competitor is let's say you

0:35:28.680 --> 0:35:30.759
<v Speaker 1>really care about winning World Series, not just the money.

0:35:30.880 --> 0:35:33.400
<v Speaker 1>I think these most athletes really care about winning. I

0:35:33.480 --> 0:35:36.120
<v Speaker 1>really do. I know there's mold match that stuff, But

0:35:36.480 --> 0:35:38.840
<v Speaker 1>if you knew that you worked all year to rehab,

0:35:38.920 --> 0:35:40.800
<v Speaker 1>to get in shape to hit your best and the

0:35:40.840 --> 0:35:43.560
<v Speaker 1>whole thing was a setup and all your work didn't

0:35:43.600 --> 0:35:45.799
<v Speaker 1>really matter that much, that would bother you a ton.

0:35:46.480 --> 0:35:47.920
<v Speaker 1>You know, if you if you knew what contest was

0:35:47.960 --> 0:35:51.080
<v Speaker 1>fixed that you're involved in, that that's got to hurt.

0:35:52.880 --> 0:35:55.520
<v Speaker 1>I just I just don't like the way the commissioner

0:35:55.680 --> 0:35:57.480
<v Speaker 1>made it seem like, oh my gosh, these guys have

0:35:57.560 --> 0:35:59.520
<v Speaker 1>suffered and they're going to suffer the rest of their lives.

0:36:00.280 --> 0:36:04.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that because these guys, you know, you

0:36:04.440 --> 0:36:06.520
<v Speaker 1>compartmentalize this and then you got to move on. You

0:36:06.560 --> 0:36:10.000
<v Speaker 1>gotta play baseball. But last I looked, you got guys

0:36:10.040 --> 0:36:14.400
<v Speaker 1>who are making a really good salary there, and you

0:36:14.480 --> 0:36:17.120
<v Speaker 1>know the excuses. Now that you hear the excuse that

0:36:17.440 --> 0:36:23.640
<v Speaker 1>apparently Jose Altuve had a bad tattoo and Carlos Corea

0:36:24.320 --> 0:36:27.040
<v Speaker 1>was protected, he said that al Tuove didn't want his

0:36:27.160 --> 0:36:29.440
<v Speaker 1>jersey ripped off because he had a bad tattoo on

0:36:29.560 --> 0:36:35.200
<v Speaker 1>his collar boat. I mean, come on, here is Cody

0:36:35.320 --> 0:36:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Bellinger or the Dodgers on the Astro's weak apologies. I

0:36:38.960 --> 0:36:43.040
<v Speaker 1>thought the apologies were or whatever. I thought Jim Cranes

0:36:43.120 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 1>was weak. I thought Manfred's punishment was weak given him immunity.

0:36:51.120 --> 0:36:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, these guys are teamed for three years, you know.

0:36:56.040 --> 0:37:00.080
<v Speaker 1>I think what people don't realize is Altove still an

0:37:00.160 --> 0:37:04.640
<v Speaker 1>MVP from Judge in seventeen. Everyone knows they stole the

0:37:04.719 --> 0:37:08.240
<v Speaker 1>rings from us. Alrighty, he didn't even call him commissioner.

0:37:08.840 --> 0:37:13.279
<v Speaker 1>He called him Manfred. Take a break. Play of the

0:37:13.360 --> 0:37:15.280
<v Speaker 1>day is coming up. We'll suddle on a pull question

0:40:21.280 --> 0:40:25.799
<v Speaker 1>to Covia's Western Goods for New Frontiers. Yeah, I didn't

0:40:25.800 --> 0:40:28.160
<v Speaker 1>wanted the game to end on a free throw, but

0:40:28.960 --> 0:40:31.279
<v Speaker 1>you know the first goal of this, the elam ending

0:40:31.480 --> 0:40:34.799
<v Speaker 1>is the name of this came up a student at

0:40:34.800 --> 0:40:36.879
<v Speaker 1>the University of Dayton who's now I think a middle

0:40:36.920 --> 0:40:39.080
<v Speaker 1>school teacher is the one who came up with the

0:40:39.160 --> 0:40:41.080
<v Speaker 1>elam ending where you put you know, you got to

0:40:41.120 --> 0:40:44.920
<v Speaker 1>get first to twenty four points here, so they got

0:40:44.960 --> 0:40:47.759
<v Speaker 1>to one fifty seven and that was your winner. I

0:40:47.840 --> 0:40:50.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't like the shot selection by Lebron as he tried

0:40:50.600 --> 0:40:52.520
<v Speaker 1>to win it when it was one fifty four one

0:40:52.719 --> 0:40:55.120
<v Speaker 1>fifty three and he pulled up from forty five feet.

0:40:55.120 --> 0:40:58.040
<v Speaker 1>It'salt like. I went, no, you'd probably get a better

0:40:58.120 --> 0:41:01.239
<v Speaker 1>shot than that. Lebron, yes, McLean. Maybe he was tired

0:41:01.280 --> 0:41:05.799
<v Speaker 1>of getting his shop block copo a little torch being

0:41:05.880 --> 0:41:09.440
<v Speaker 1>passed on Sunday night. Maybe I liked it. I'd like

0:41:09.640 --> 0:41:13.200
<v Speaker 1>seeing the defense Jhannas blocking Lebron on the layup and

0:41:13.239 --> 0:41:16.120
<v Speaker 1>the fourth was good, and then they called the goaltending

0:41:16.120 --> 0:41:18.320
<v Speaker 1>and reviewed it. Uh. I don't know the rule in

0:41:18.400 --> 0:41:20.880
<v Speaker 1>that when it hits the backboard, it's automatically goaltending. I

0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:24.200
<v Speaker 1>thought right after, if you touch it after it hit

0:41:24.239 --> 0:41:25.840
<v Speaker 1>the back yeah, and it was sort of it was

0:41:25.960 --> 0:41:28.319
<v Speaker 1>bang bang, whether it touched the backboard right and if

0:41:28.360 --> 0:41:30.520
<v Speaker 1>they said it hadn't hit the backboard, oh, they said

0:41:30.520 --> 0:41:33.640
<v Speaker 1>it officially didn't. Okay, it looked like a great block,

0:41:33.760 --> 0:41:36.920
<v Speaker 1>but it is really close, really close. Yeah, that you

0:41:37.000 --> 0:41:39.759
<v Speaker 1>have to see club. It was fun, fun to watch it.

0:41:40.320 --> 0:41:42.759
<v Speaker 1>Jannis didn't get cheated though, he got He got to

0:41:42.760 --> 0:41:45.000
<v Speaker 1>shoot whatever he wanted to. Yeah, there's a play. I

0:41:45.040 --> 0:41:47.480
<v Speaker 1>can't remember what Lebron was upset about. There's a foul call.

0:41:47.560 --> 0:41:49.359
<v Speaker 1>I got charge of something and he was screaming at

0:41:49.360 --> 0:41:51.880
<v Speaker 1>the ref like like it felt like Game six, And

0:41:52.080 --> 0:41:53.560
<v Speaker 1>I was like, if he gets a technical in an

0:41:53.600 --> 0:41:55.480
<v Speaker 1>All Star game, that would be awesome. When's the last

0:41:55.520 --> 0:41:57.640
<v Speaker 1>time somebody got a technical in the All Star Game?

0:41:57.719 --> 0:42:00.799
<v Speaker 1>Are you yelling at a ref? Well, because you might

0:42:01.400 --> 0:42:04.439
<v Speaker 1>get somebody to get a technical because they're just having fun.

0:42:06.040 --> 0:42:09.879
<v Speaker 1>You'd have to probably go back to the seventies when

0:42:09.960 --> 0:42:12.680
<v Speaker 1>when it or maybe eighties when it really mattered winning

0:42:12.719 --> 0:42:14.799
<v Speaker 1>the All Star Game. Yeah, I remember watching. I don't

0:42:14.800 --> 0:42:16.799
<v Speaker 1>know if it's called the McDonald's All American Game at

0:42:16.840 --> 0:42:18.960
<v Speaker 1>the time, but Patrick Ewing was a senior in high

0:42:18.960 --> 0:42:20.799
<v Speaker 1>school and he got in a fight in an All

0:42:20.880 --> 0:42:23.399
<v Speaker 1>Star game on national TV. It was one of those

0:42:23.480 --> 0:42:25.680
<v Speaker 1>McDonald's Americans and that was where he kind of earned

0:42:25.680 --> 0:42:27.640
<v Speaker 1>his repperence. Like this is a casual All Star game

0:42:27.680 --> 0:42:30.200
<v Speaker 1>and he would like get into a people. I got

0:42:30.239 --> 0:42:32.560
<v Speaker 1>this from a Bull Frague nineteen eighty three. I think

0:42:32.560 --> 0:42:35.000
<v Speaker 1>the NBA should do what Baseball does with their All

0:42:35.040 --> 0:42:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Star Game. Winning conference gets home court in the finals.

0:42:38.360 --> 0:42:41.759
<v Speaker 1>That will make it a little more competitive, right right, yeah,

0:42:43.080 --> 0:42:45.680
<v Speaker 1>it will. Well, they don't do conferences. I think you'd

0:42:45.680 --> 0:42:49.200
<v Speaker 1>go back to that. I guess, well, no, you have

0:42:49.239 --> 0:42:51.880
<v Speaker 1>Eastern Conference, Western Conference. Well they split him up now,

0:42:52.000 --> 0:42:55.960
<v Speaker 1>right with Team Jannas and Team Lebron. They do that draft. Yeah, which,

0:42:56.040 --> 0:42:58.560
<v Speaker 1>by the way, that was maybe an okayam that didn't

0:42:58.560 --> 0:43:01.600
<v Speaker 1>really affectory. They should just go East West again. I

0:43:01.840 --> 0:43:04.920
<v Speaker 1>like that better, But but you could do that with

0:43:05.040 --> 0:43:08.200
<v Speaker 1>the draft. I'd like when you're drafting. I just think

0:43:08.239 --> 0:43:11.280
<v Speaker 1>it's it's interesting how you build your team. Because Jannis

0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:13.799
<v Speaker 1>build a team. He didn't want James Harden on his team.

0:43:13.880 --> 0:43:17.480
<v Speaker 1>By the way James Harden he was it looked like

0:43:17.560 --> 0:43:21.080
<v Speaker 1>he was lost out there because the All Star Game

0:43:21.200 --> 0:43:25.120
<v Speaker 1>is not built for James Harden. James Harden is the

0:43:25.200 --> 0:43:28.240
<v Speaker 1>most important person on his team during the regular season.

0:43:28.840 --> 0:43:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Then he's kind of like, wait a minute, I gotta pass. Hey,

0:43:34.040 --> 0:43:36.279
<v Speaker 1>I need to go one on one here, Like it

0:43:36.480 --> 0:43:38.839
<v Speaker 1>was just sort of strange to see him, and that's

0:43:38.880 --> 0:43:41.000
<v Speaker 1>probably why Yannis is going on, I what guys are

0:43:41.000 --> 0:43:43.399
<v Speaker 1>going to pass me the ball? James Harden's not gonna

0:43:43.400 --> 0:43:46.520
<v Speaker 1>pass me the ball. But it was fun. I thought

0:43:46.560 --> 0:43:50.680
<v Speaker 1>that the NBA did well and the three point contest

0:43:50.800 --> 0:43:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Buddy healed coming down to the lash shot. That was

0:43:53.360 --> 0:43:55.680
<v Speaker 1>great as well. The fact that we're talking about the

0:43:55.719 --> 0:43:59.200
<v Speaker 1>slam Dunk Contest and the controversy. Yeah, probably good for

0:43:59.400 --> 0:44:01.960
<v Speaker 1>the slam Dunk Contest. Now, don't you want to see

0:44:02.400 --> 0:44:05.719
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Gordon saying if I'm in the NBA, I'm on

0:44:05.800 --> 0:44:09.879
<v Speaker 1>the horn with Aaron Gordon now going, Hey, whatever it takes,

0:44:09.960 --> 0:44:12.120
<v Speaker 1>we want you in the slam Dunk Contest next year.

0:44:12.800 --> 0:44:16.800
<v Speaker 1>All right. We promised that we'll do the best judging

0:44:16.840 --> 0:44:18.840
<v Speaker 1>will be better with this, but I want you in.

0:44:19.160 --> 0:44:21.799
<v Speaker 1>The commissioners should call Aaron Gordon and then you say

0:44:21.840 --> 0:44:24.360
<v Speaker 1>to Derek Jones Junior, we want you to be in

0:44:24.400 --> 0:44:27.120
<v Speaker 1>the slam Dunk Contest as well. Let's create something out

0:44:27.160 --> 0:44:29.719
<v Speaker 1>of this. Yeah, But then those guys, if all goes well,

0:44:29.800 --> 0:44:32.439
<v Speaker 1>have to face his Zion next year. Assuming he's healthy,

0:44:32.480 --> 0:44:37.160
<v Speaker 1>he would participate even better, even better. Aaron Gordon's not

0:44:37.239 --> 0:44:42.480
<v Speaker 1>afraid of Zion. Derek Jones Junior, the third, he's not

0:44:42.520 --> 0:44:45.600
<v Speaker 1>afraid of him either. What's a poll question? We're gonna

0:44:45.600 --> 0:44:47.320
<v Speaker 1>go with me gloving. So I actually put up again

0:44:47.520 --> 0:44:50.560
<v Speaker 1>the question that we asked two weeks ago, should m

0:44:50.600 --> 0:44:53.319
<v Speaker 1>WIB vacate the Astros in two seventeen title? Two weeks ago,

0:44:53.320 --> 0:44:57.799
<v Speaker 1>it's sixty three percent. Today it's eighty seven percent. Same

0:44:57.920 --> 0:45:00.759
<v Speaker 1>cheating scandal. Nothing else has come out that they asked

0:45:00.760 --> 0:45:03.120
<v Speaker 1>to come out except of the apologies and Manford. I

0:45:03.200 --> 0:45:06.080
<v Speaker 1>just think the public sentiment is turning even further against

0:45:06.120 --> 0:45:09.880
<v Speaker 1>the Astros this pruise. Yeah, but the end, you know,

0:45:10.000 --> 0:45:12.000
<v Speaker 1>the looks on their faces, They're gonna have to live

0:45:12.080 --> 0:45:15.359
<v Speaker 1>with this the rest of their lives. Oh yeah, you're right. Wait,

0:45:15.400 --> 0:45:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and they sit on their hellos and body you're on

0:45:17.960 --> 0:45:28.440
<v Speaker 1>your boat just shame you name your boat shame fa Yeah, anguish, embarrassment.

0:45:28.560 --> 0:45:30.440
<v Speaker 1>He has what do you just embrace the other way

0:45:30.480 --> 0:45:32.480
<v Speaker 1>and have a new mask cup called Asteriska has got

0:45:32.520 --> 0:45:34.560
<v Speaker 1>a big star on his chest that is running around

0:45:34.600 --> 0:45:36.839
